Join Toronto-based poet Trish Salah for the launch of the new Canadian edition of Lyric Sexology Vol. 1.

Chances are you’ve read Salah’s poetry that “makes a perfect mess of so much human experience that's been too tidily categorized” (Michael V. Smith). Drawing on personal history and theory, anthropological and psychoanalytic archives, Salah’s lyric and language poetry will be your summer reading, we hope.
